Amazon workers are sleeping in tents near their work

This has nothing to do with Amazon. It is a result of the poor employment situation in the UK.
Amazon is the one paying extremely low wages...they were given a tax break and other benefits and yet they take advantage of that generosity by shitting on the workers still.

And when americans are will to embrace their own status as sharecroppers, then the jibs will come back. Not before.
Sharecroppers? What century are you living in?

Think about it pard, some of us have watched this coming for a half century.

"The last generation has been marked by a stark disconnect between productivity growth (up 80 percent between 1973 and 2011) and slow or stunted wage growth. The real hourly wages of the median worker grew less than 4 percent over this span, and real hourly compensation (wages and benefits) grew only 10.7 percent. The graphic at the end of this post parses this dismal wage record by gender, by wage decile, and by business cycle (wage dated updated through 2012, in June 2013).

For all workers, the erosion of real wages was broad and uneven from 1973 through 1995. The upturn of 1995–2000, the latter part of the 1989–2000 business cycle, brought a brief respite of across-the-board wage growth, some of which spilled past 2000 (although the wage growth from 2000–2007 skews much more to higher earners). The current recession and recovery (2007–2012) have brought with them wage losses for most workers.

For men, the pattern is even starker. Real wages begin falling for low-wage men in the mid-1970s, and this spread across all but the highest percentiles through 1979–1989 and through the first half of the 1990s (1989–1995). The late 1990s brings some relief, but this is short-lived: wage growth grinds to a halt in 2000–2007 and then loses ground—for all but highest earners—from 2007–2012."

Real hourly wage growth: The last generation

Plenty of research out there, there has indeed been a vast redistribution of wealth in this society, just not in the direction your corporate owned media machine wants you to understand.
 

"At least three tents have been spotted..."

Three?

Camping tents. They are probably backpackers from France.

Maybe refugees that came from Syria!

Perhaps it's Mary and Joe looking for a room in the inn, a live nativity scene. You know, that whole thing we do to honor Middle Eastern refugees who had no place to stay, even with a miraculously pregnant virgin wife.

Well, going to the UK for healthcare during pregnancy might be a regret.

They all went to Canada, but were turned back at the border. Now they are all grinding coffee beans for Starbucks in Seattle.

Symbolically, yes. A hand to mouth existence, check to check, with homelessness a few paychecks or one serious illness away. Not you? Well good for you, but you will not have a stable society to live in with so many living like that. Watch.

So you are admitting that you didn't know what the term, sharecropper meant. Now you should try to figure out why the rise in productivity is the reason wages are stagnant.
